Next week is the last week of classes and the last week for my tutor hour. Since Jan., I have been meeting with a language tutor 50 minutes a day, four days a week. These times with my tutors have been profitable for practicing my language skills that I have been learning in class and putting them into "real life" random conversation.
Above: Obed de la Cruz taught me a few more chords during my tutor time this past week.I wanted to thank each of my tutors for their patience with me, for their friendship that has developed over this past year, and for their help in teaching me so much. My tutors this semester have been Alex from Spain, Obed from Mexico, Reynaldo from El Salvador, Fernando from Mexico, and Sebastian from Chile. I will miss my time talking with each one of them, although it wasn't always enjoyable raking my brain to come up with conversation.
As a gift to my tutors for their hard work, I bought them each a copy of "Knowing God" by J.I. Packer (in Spanish, or course). My prayer is that all of them will graduate from RGBI and serve the Lord faithfully back in their county or in another country if the Lord leads.

Nice tip of the hat to those men. I took six semesters of Arabic in college and can't speak a lick of it due to notusing it on a regular basis. I look forward to hearing about the fruit this little "extra" yields in the years ahead.
